Is Roscosmos no longer a competitor to NASA? What projects is the Russian Federation developing in space and what is their main problem?

206

Roskosmos and NASA are the two largest structures in the world that manage space projects in Russia and the United States. Naturally, they can be perceived as the main competitors in the industry. But what projects have been recently implemented by Roscosmos?

There is a fairly widespread and well-founded, incidentally, opinion that the Russian space industry is, in fact, “eating up” the legacy of the Soviet state. At one time, the USSR confidently led the world space industry, but Russia, initially retaining its leading position, eventually began to yield to the United States. One of the main reasons for this situation is the lack of adequate funding from the state. But even in such a situation, Roscosmos still launches certain projects.



One of the first projects of Roscosmos, which should be noted, is the development of the manned spacecraft Orel (formerly the Federation ship). True, the development time is delayed. It has been under way since 2005, but is still incomplete. According to the project, they want to make the spacecraft capable of flying in the orbit of the moon. The cost of creating the first sample is estimated at 57,56 billion rubles.

Now the ship, which still does not exist, is planned to be adapted to making money: to deliver space tourists. But can such a strategy be called a worthy great power? It is one thing when the businessman Elon Musk talks about making money with the help of tourists, and quite another when they talk about it at the state level.


Will the new spacecraft have clear goals other than space tourism?

Of course, there is nothing wrong with space tourism, it is a good and decent income, but it cannot be considered either among the main directions of development of the space industry, or among the important areas of financing space activities. Many experts analyzing the development of the space industry believe that the increased attention to space tourism is just evidence of the absence of other, more significant, goals for a promising spacecraft, the construction of which will cost a rather serious amount.

Another very important project for Roscosmos is the Angara rocket. Its first launch took place six years ago, but so far the rocket has not entered serial production. However, they expect to do this in the very near future. The main obstacle is also of a financial nature: one rocket after the start of production will cost 4 billion rubles. At least, this is exactly the price they call it in Roscosmos.

The third important project supervised by Roskosmos is the Sphere global satellite communications system. It is assumed that by 2030 the Russian satellite network should include 638 spacecraft, including 334 communication satellites, 55 navigation satellites and 249 Earth remote sensing devices. To put them into orbit, 88 medium Soyuz-2.1b missiles, 36 Angara-1.2 light missiles and 24 Angara-A5 heavy missiles will have to be used. Roscosmos expects that Sphere will be able to compete with OneWeb and Starlink.


Construction of the second stage of the Vostochny cosmodrome - a launch complex for carrier rockets of the Angara family

In 2016, the construction of the Vostochny cosmodrome was completed. Unlike the promising projects listed above, the cosmodrome has become a reality. It is located in the Far East in the Amur Region, near the town of Tsiolkovsky. On April 28, 2016, the first successful launch of three artificial earth satellites took place from the cosmodrome. In 2022, they expect to launch an unmanned spacecraft. At the same time, in the coming decades, the Vostochny cosmodrome will not be able to replace the main Baikonur cosmodrome.

As you can see, Roskosmos has projects, but the Russian space corporation is now struggling to withstand competition with NASA. In the same United States, they do believe that Roscosmos is no longer a competitor either in terms of funding or in the number of simultaneously implemented projects. Even the head of Roscosmos, Dmitry Rogozin, has repeatedly spoken about the difficult situation associated with the underfunding of projects, although he emphasized that this is not so much a lag in development, but rather a gap in Roscosmos projects of 10-12 years. But for the modern space industry, this is a global term. Moreover, not only American, but also Chinese, as well as Indian, Japanese, and European competitors are on the way. If today Russia is still holding its positions, then what will happen in the future, and in a rather foreseeable, serious question.

        Replacing "girls" who think with their left palm ("to money") will give positive changes. For some reason, designers do not lead the media (do not take specialized into account). But journalists, please! So we have what we have.

        Here are the hands of the leaders of Roscosmos all the time complaining about the lack of funding. Only, I’m wondering how many billions of rubles it will cost to build this huge building on the territory of the Khrunichev plant in Moscow, comparable in size to the main building of Moscow State University on Vorobyovy Gory, for which Rogozin “drowns” so much and all these ineffective hands of Roscosmos executives moved there ?

          Something similar has already been done by M.A. Poghosyan, built a huge corps for the KLA next to the LII. However, something went wrong here: the building has been empty for 5 years already (because no one needs anything), and Poghosyan just in 2015 fled from the post of President of PJSC UAC. Since then, he has been the "ambassador to Mongolia" (crossed out) - rector of the Moscow Aviation Institute. This hit hardest of all on his son born in 1986, who after graduating from the Higher School of Economics, as Vika writes, On March 18, 2013, 27-year-old Artyom Poghosyan was appointed senior vice president for economics and finance at Sukhoi Civil Aircraft [4]. Mikhail Poghosyan denies any involvement in this appointment, according to him, he “did not lobby for the appointment of his son... After his father resigned from senior positions in the United Aircraft Corporation, Artyom (for some reason, suddenly) ceased to hold the post of vice president for economics and finance at SCAC. But he did not remain without work - now he holds the position of Investment Director at the Russian Helicopters holding

          You will be surprised, but Roskosmos will cost nothing to build the National Space Center.
          Firstly, construction is carried out at the expense of funds allocated by the city. Roscosmos does not invest its funds. Secondly, it is not an “office” that is being built, but a modern, equipped with “the latest technology” engineering center for Russian missile engineers.

            Dilbar is ranked in the top 5 superyachts by most of the main parameters, while boasting the world's largest internal volume and a record displacement of 15917 gross tonnes. Much more interesting can be noted in this technically super-complicated huge luxury:
            - construction took 52 months, cost about $ 650 million;
            - length 156 meters, 60 cabins, more than 80 crew members;

            This is a confusion in terms, in this case the gross tonnage is indicated, and the displacement of the Dilbar yacht is 4100 tons. But Usmanov has another smaller yacht, Ona, which is 110m long. The total displacement of the oligarch's mini-fleet will be greater than the frigate. It would be interesting to calculate the total tonnage of the Russian oligarchs' megayachts.

          firstly, she is no longer Usmanov since the age of 18. secondly, in the English version of Wikipedia, where one does not need to be propagandistic, its displacement is reduced to 4000 tons.

          Delusion. Roscosmos is precisely the state. What is needed is not officials who, by virtue of their skill, rule the industry, but simply loot. Changing the very concept of space exploration - the growth in the size and carrying capacity of rockets and ships became a dead end for the USSR and Russia. We have launch sites on land, in the interior of the continent. Transportation of bulky items for general assembly by rail is not possible. To do this, we went to crazy expenses - they made a transport superplane - ANT 225. The States carry their oversized cargo by sea. They concentrated their start-ups and production on the coast. Baikonur fell off, and there will no longer be an opportunity to launch not only poisonous Protons, but any. The most southern starting points are in the Far Eastern taiga, where cities and factories need to be set up again. Again trillions of expenses. So, think before you write nonsense.

              Nonsense. We need take-off routes, mainly to the north of the launch point, free for the fall of parts of carriers, stages, both in normal mode and in emergency mode. To the distance of launching into orbit, and this is hundreds of kilometers. In Crimea, free zones are only to the south. And this makes the launches categorically unprofitable from the point of view of the launch energy. It is good to start up only to the north, counting your own coordinates as the beginning. From THIS point of view, the Northern Arctic is good. But, the launch coordinates themselves are far from the equator, which again reduces the mass of the satellite launched by the same carrier. The best place in the USSR was just Baikonur. Desert, and the most southern location. Lack of settlements near neighbors, on the takeoff route outside the USSR, in which case, suffering from ..... Desert areas in the landing zones of descent vehicles.

For this, Sea Launch was bought from private traders. So as not to be scrapped. Not only because you can shoot from the equator. And from anywhere in the water area.

        In any matter, you need to know the history.
        I want to remind you that the last Soviet leader of space programs was academician Sagdeev. Under his leadership, several missions to Mars, Halley's comet, and others were ruined in a row. On the spacecraft to the comet, according to an official message, one of the instruments was completely forgotten to turn on.
        Immediately after perestroika, he moved to the United States, where he once received citizenship and married the granddaughter of US President Eisenhower.
        Uncle was so unexpectedly lucky.
        In general, the story is muddy and Sagdeev's personnel probably still control our space industry.
        So Rogozin, most likely, is only reaping the fruits of Sagdeev's crops.

          The Soviet history of SCIENTIFIC interest in space research is associated with Roald Sagdeev to an absolute and unconditional degree. It was he who insisted on carrying out truly scientific programs to study the planets of the solar system, and it was he who promoted the first Soviet programs for the exploration of deep space. SCIENTIFIC, i.e. interested in the structure of the universe, and not in military-applied acts. Koi burned immeasurable funds on often sucked out of thin air "threats" and tales, told to members of the Politburo by interested comrades

                        "Even at the design stage of MP Elbrus, the developers had an understanding of the importance of supporting software written for the Intel x86 architecture. For this, a system of dynamic (ie, during program execution, or "on the fly") translation of x86 binary codes into Elbrus processor codes was implemented... In fact, the binary translation system creates a virtual machine that runs an x86 guest OS. Thanks to several levels of optimization, it is possible to achieve a high speed of the translated code (see diagrams above). The quality of x86 architecture emulation is confirmed by the successful launch of more than 20 operating systems (including several versions of Windows) and hundreds of applications on the Elbrus platform.

Playstation 3 has a processor similar to Elbrus, 256 MB of RAM and 256 MB of video memory. And at the same time, there are no hints of freezing. And why even modern processors with tons of gigahertz and video cards with 8 gigabytes of memory can't handle ps3 games normally. Why a piece of iron with much low technical characteristics makes a piece of hardware huge numbers
                You still write about x86 emulation. Do you even know what it is? My advice to you is not to write your nonsense anywhere else. And then they will take you for the mother's technician. By the way, intel and amd are welded on people like you thanks to gigahertz.

      Well, you know, in 50 years of Soyuz flights and in 20 years of flights to the ISS (a little less, but still), you can still calculate the most favorable flight trajectory and work it out. It is rather strange to expect the same in the first manned launch.

        Musk, what's the first time you launch a rocket? lol
        It all depends on the accuracy of the derivation. The Soyuz-2 launch vehicle makes it possible to achieve accuracy in altitude placement with an error of no more than 5 kilometers. This indicator for the Soyuz-FG launch vehicle, using an analog system, was up to plus or minus 42 km.

      The question "Who is not a competitor to whom?" delivered correctly.
      Roscosmos is no longer a competitor not even to NASA, but to Mask alone.
      Delivery time is the only (so far) argument that testifies to the epochal achievements of today's Roscosmos (on Soviet carriers, by the way)?
      The assessment criteria are available in many sources, including Russian ones. Why flood?
      Are you having a hard time finding the launch price of a nine for a commercial flight? Information is the sea. With a new stage and with those who have already flown. Google to the rescue. Or do you not know how much the same Roscosmos began to tear from the same HASA for a passenger seat immediately after the announcement of the closure of the Space Shuttle program? Let me remind you: about twice as much. Immediately and without explanation. This gave Obama a reason to give the command to revive the manned sector and led to the emergence of Musk, who is laying the Russian state astronautics on its blades today. How can we not recall our prophetic "greed of a frayer destroys"?
      As for the article - you can agree with something, with something not.
      Why mention QC Eagle / Federation? What can you talk about there? About the plastic model at the exhibition? Or that KK eventually gained such weight in the calculations that there was no carrier for it in Russia? SpaceX began development of the Dragon spacecraft in late 2004. On October 8, 2012, the Dragon ship has already departed for the International Space Station as part of a cargo mission. And on May 30, 2014, Musk presented a manned version of the Dragon spacecraft, called the Dragon V2. The flooding of which is expected today.
      The Russian monopoly on passenger transportation in space, apparently, is coming to an end. As for commercial cargo, you can forget about them completely and irrevocably, here Musk completely cut off the oxygen.
      Angara, yes, a failed project. Both in terms of price and weight of withdrawn PN. In the civilian sector, she is not in a position to compete with the Mask; only the RF Ministry of Defense can be in demand.
      Can Sphere compete with Starlink? Well ... it's not even funny.
      As for the East - to the point. So far, this is wasted money, judging by the planned modernization of the Baikonur launch pads. Miscalculations with logistics do not fit into the head at all.
      What is the bottom line in the asset?
      Oh yes, Mr. Rogozin is successfully building a new rocket. True, for some reason, stone and not for the needs of specifically space.

          2. Double the price originally stated. Is this unclear from the context? I can clarify: in 2006, a seat in the Union cost the US $ 21,3 million. Immediately after the closure of the Space Shuttle program, the price suddenly jumped and by 2020 reached $ 86 million. Not sickly, right? On average, the United States paid Russia $ 55,4 million for a seat.

    I probably will not surprise you all here, but I will remind you: Roscosmos is not a private commercial store, it is the STATE CORPORATION whose purpose I quote:
    ensures the implementation of state policy in the field of space activities and its legal regulation, and also places orders for the development, production and supply of space technology and space infrastructure objects.
    The functions of the state corporation also include the development of international cooperation in the space sector and the creation of conditions for the use of the results of space activities in the social and economic development of Russia.

    Those. it fully and completely fulfills only orders of the State and the Ministry of Defense in particular.
    Roskosmos will not launch tourists, will not launch Lada-Vesta into space, will not build lunar and Martian bases until it is in the interests of the State. Roscosmos is not looking for clients to launch commercial satellites. These clients are "spurred on" by the State. And the same will not compete with Mask Roskosmos. There are 12 more Russian private commercial companies for this.
    The plans that are described in the article are aimed at State interests, and not "chop money" from wealthy tourists.
    Require Roscosmos to compete with Mask ... Well, if the domestic ubiquitous creakliate and
    All-fingered people want Musk to have a competitor in Russia, then any of the 12 Russian private companies can chip in.

      Because of the crooked legislation, they had to inflate a big, big condom a bubble called "Elon Musk", and to drain his patents in order to pour money into the space industry through a "private" company.
      But how does this cancel the fact that a huge team of engineering and technical personnel is concentrated there, capable of solving complex tasks such as landing steps on a barge (an innovation of dubious value, but the professionalism of the developers was so robust)? And this team is not allowed to get bored without work. This means that the touch of a brain that can give birth to something really breakthrough does not dry out, but quite the opposite.

    Since August 2006, NASA has spent $ 16,7 billion on the creation of the lunar-Martian manned spacecraft Orion, an analogue of which, according to Roskosmos, is the Federation (Eagle), said in a report by the inspector general of the space agency Paul Martin.
    The total expenses for Orion, including the production of serial spacecraft, by the end of 2030, as the inspector calculated, will amount to $ 29,5 billion, that is, they will cost almost 12 Roskosmos budgets for 2020 (in the open part, that is, excluding the defense order).
    According to the document, most of these funds went to the world's largest military-industrial corporation Lockheed Martin, which develops and manufactures Orion. The funding did not include work on the spacecraft service module, which is being developed by the European Space Agency (ESA).

      It is somewhat incorrect to compare the efficiency in terms of spending. Each participant in the labor activity in the United States associated with space earns more than his Russian colleagues (excluding, probably, top management) - while, of course, he spends more, is more credited, etc. If we compare the cost of developing Orion in man-hours with the cost of the Federation, there will be a chasm, but for the most part this chasm will be associated with the involvement of the labor of a highly paid labor force and the products produced by such labor force. Spot small-scale products in the conditions of our country will cost MUCH cheaper than also in the USA - and although technologically this product will (possibly) be produced of better quality or cheaper, our product will benefit from the cost of manufacturing it.
      I am leading to the fact that it is impossible to unambiguously write off everything to funding. The spacecraft in the presence of developed comput. systems and mathematical models are just a piece of iron with a lot of bureaucracy. Our bureaucracy is larger than the American one and it is less efficient - we spend more on this and it eats our advantage in the cost of labor.

    Space can be developed by people like Tsiolkovsky, Brown, Korolev, Musk. An official can only perform administrative work, he is not capable of more.

Brown is a convinced Nazi, worked for the idea in the form of a Browning at the temple, lived in a cardboard house in Huntsville with practically no right of movement.

        No one in their right mind will buy it today. The plant simply has no load and no desire to receive it. If they took a license for Versatil, Challenger, or even the Chinese YTO started collecting, they would have survived.


        Workshops and staffs are not a reason for pride. It's the same in the rocket industry. Where in the cinema of Roskosmos they expose old women of retirement age who climb into the tank with a carrier to check the seams, in other countries there is a robotic stand with objective control and micron precision.

    In my opinion, we have ceased to be a competitor of the West for space since the late 80s and early 90s. What is a "competitor"? It’s not just when someone breathes in your back - it’s when you invest and develop projects that you don’t have in peers, while maintaining a certain parity in key areas. In the 80s, we had good practices on Buran-Energia - Energia had the potential scalability of the project in the form of a Vulcan rocket, as far as I remember - that is, we were potentially ahead in the super-heavy niche in terms of actual developments. At the beginning of the 80s, we had quite fresh groundwork for AMC (Vega-1, Vega-2) - and, accordingly, for the design of all this. Although it can be assumed that by that time we had already pulled ahead on only a few key projects (relative to the USA) of a utilitarian nature - after all, in matters of the reliability of space technology and the same AMS, in matters of the quality of filling, photographic equipment, computing power, they were already ahead of us qualitatively. Voyager and Pioneers and Vikings have already flown - what can I say, at the moment 99% of space-related photos of the solar system are a product of US activities. By the end of the 80s, for financial and political reasons, our projects were reduced to Earth's orbit - we were lagging behind in computers, radio equipment, photographic equipment. Our space did not have a saving shoulder in the form of abundant commercial orders - so, in fact, even before the collapse of the USSR, we had already lagged behind, making a last breakthrough.

    Further, there is no need to say that we were serious competitors - in terms of share in the commercial market at one time - yes, for some military developments - yes, in terms of the scientific component, the scale and seriousness of the activity - definitely not. Of course, we had our own station, the Americans flew to it, including, there were experiments, a huge reserve of competence and space-related inventions - but if we are talking about competition, then we were no longer competitors - neither in AMS, nor in research Mars, nor on the creation of space modules - all this was lost. Soon we lost our advantage in the development of engines and missiles - in composites, in environmentally friendly fuel vapors, in the manufacturability of engines and in the issue of their reuse.

    The scale, leadership competence and funding of our space. activity, as well as the political request and the residual archaism of military orientation inherited from the USSR - all this prevented us from being competitors for the United States, all expanding the gap between us. And now it is a strategic abyss into which we can throw as many "Federations" or "Hangars" as we like.

    Nothing of the kind. Russia is no longer the largest space power. Here the window of flights to Mars has opened. Who flew? The United States with a record-breaking rover of 1250 kg in weight (which should return to Earth in 10 YEARS), China sent 850 kg and the United Arab Emirates - 450 kg (The weight of the vehicles that will explore Mars is indicated).

    The first problem is indicated correctly: underfinancing.
    But enterprises also grab such projects in order to simply survive.
    That is, we have been living for 3-5 years, and then it will be seen where the curve will take.
    The second problem is the "inappropriate" increase in funds. Including at enterprises operating under programs with the same underfunding.
    That is, it is scary to think about how much they will drag with (let us imagine) sufficient funding. And no "authorities" can cope with theft.
    The schemes for pumping money into individual pockets are too well developed.
    Moreover, it seems that even persons close to the Chief's body are being dragged along skeet.
    The third problem is that there is no flight of thought precisely because of the expectations of future underfunding.
    That is, we will come up with it, but they won't give money.
    The fourth problem: a clear lag in general scientific developments and technology. For 20-25 years.
    And this is, in fact, a collapse.
    Already the Chinese have mastered the casting of thin-walled parts with outstanding quality, but in our country, as 40 years ago, either the walls are curved or "holes" in the casting on 38 out of 40 castings.
    No radiation resistant electronics. There is none at all - from the word at all. No.
    And the point is not at all in Rogozin (whom I very much dislike).
    It's about the system.

But in general, the American economy is a cost economy. And the costs are fantastic in terms of volume. Failed projects, misuse of funds, constant missed deadlines, loss of competencies, aging staff and lack of management control are the hallmarks of the current US industry.

    They say there are two troubles in Russia .... In fact, there is only one trouble. Any management in Russia is a system without feedback or even with positive feedback.... Whatever the boss does, "" approvals "are guaranteed, as a result, as the Tsars ruled all life, so did the General Secretary and the Presidents. Under any legislation. The people can be very, very dissatisfied, BUT" approvals "will not matter! How to manage anything in such a society?

    It is known that a system without negative feedback is doomed to a catastrophic scenario. This is a mathematical fact that Russia has never avoided either in politics, or in the wars of 1812 or 1941, or in technology, nowhere and in any way. We just have to wait until the space is completely covered and (according to Saltykov-Shchedrin) we will all see that the chief has a different place instead of his head. We must endure a little more, the Russian people have not yet invented another way.

      Some strange arguments. Just in 1812, and in 1941-45, they dealt with the armed forces of the beloved heart of home-grown philosophers, starting with Chaadaev, a united Europe. There was a catastrophe, of course, but not internal, but from outside. By the way, Prussia and Austria-Hungary, militarized to the limit, collapsed under the blows of Napoleon, just like Poland and France under the blows of Hitler, England in both cases sat out on her island until Russia coped with the aggressor. What does this have to do with space exploration? Where is the lack of feedback? In both cases, there was very much this connection, otherwise they would have been drinking Bavarian beer now, so to speak. If the soap drinks beer.

      Whoever visited factory workshops in Soviet times not on an excursion, but at least had a real industrial practice at the workplace, and has the opportunity to compare with what is observed in workshops now, as well as compare the average quality of products, will give preference to the present time. The culture of production, product quality and concern for the convenience of the consumer in terms of products for general use have grown significantly. The final production is still not enough, but the energy sector has not only been restored, but also increased its capacity by about 30%. And electricity is produced by 15% more than in 1990 in the RSFSR. The capacities are underutilized, so we have to dump to China for the time being, which many are genuinely indignant with.

      But - there is simply nowhere to go, the introduced capacities cannot work with less load. If there is energy, there will be a powerful industry. An essential point is an increase in the depth of oil refining. No more than 40% of the produced is exported, the production of high-octane gasoline has increased greatly. This, coupled with a giant leap forward in road development, is the foundation on which a new economy, including the space industry, will grow. Someone really does not like all this. So the roads, in general, have basically already been put in order, at least in the densely populated European part of Russia, but we cannot cope with fools so far. In this country, they say, nothing good can be. Tired for 30 years with a hook.

      And in the USSR, unfortunately, fuel oil accounted for 30% of the output of oil products, and it was burned mainly in small boiler houses. The river cargo fleet, which was quite numerous, was also mainly on fuel oil. It is very environmentally unfriendly. An unforgettable sight of the fields of torches between Angarsk and Irkutsk - associated gas was burned almost completely. The train runs at night, and it is light, almost like during the day. And also - maybe someone thinks that they did not drive round timber from the USSR with might and main, and their own paper, on average, was not very so-so, and there was not enough of it? In general, there is a feeling that the postulate, fixed at the 80th Congress of the RCP (b) in 1939, was still valid in the XNUMXs - "the natural resources of the USSR are inexhaustible." Well, at that moment such a thesis was timely, but nevertheless it turned out that this was not the case. They caught themselves: "The economy must be economical." Well, they did something like that ... We wanted the best, but it turned out, as always. But it seems that this aphorism of our unforgettable Chrysostom, over which many made fun of foolishly, is gradually losing its relevance.

    What projects are there. Only transportation to orbit-back. Some kind of scientific launches only in dreams.

    With the existing system - space has not surrendered to anyone

    Then the question is why the Americans with the same system manage to develop space?
    Why American distant stations have already left the solar system, why are American rovers exploring the surface of Mars, why are American space telescopes looking into the depths of galaxies? And at Roscosmos, only one radio telescope project was cool, and even then it has already ended.

      Those in the Kremlin have a completely different system.

    Let's remember only NASA's interplanetary programs in recent years:
    - Galileo 1989 (exploration of Jupiter and its moons)
    - NEAR Shoemaker 1996 (study of the asteroid Eros, landing on the asteroid)
    - Cassini station 1997 (study of Saturn and satellites, landing of a probe on Titan)
    -Deep Space 1 1998 (The main purpose of the flight was to test twelve samples of the latest technologies - including an electrostatic ion engine, Autonav - an autonomous navigation system that minimizes the need to adjust the movement of the vehicle from the Earth, etc.
    - 3 rovers (2003 Opportunity, Spirit 2003, 2011 Curiosity - exploring Mars, searching for water to place the future Martian base)
    - New Horizons 2006 (exploration of Pluto and the Kuiper belt)
    - mission “Dawn 2007 (exploration of the asteroid Vesta and the dwarf planet Ceres)
    Juno Jupiter Polar Orbiter 2011 (exploration of Jupiter)
    -MAVEN-1 2013 (Mars Atmosphere and Volatile EvolutioN - "Evolution of the atmosphere and volatiles on Mars") - American artificial satellite for the study of the atmosphere of Mars
    - InSight 2018 (Interior Exploration using Seismic Investigations, Geodesy and Heat Transport, formerly called Geophysical Monitoring Station - GEMS) - delivery to Mars of a lander with a seismometer. the study of the internal structure and composition of Mars).
    - Parker Solar Probe 2018, previously also Solar Probe, Solar Probe Plus or Solar Probe + (study of the outer corona of the Sun)
    - OSIRIS-REx (Origins Spectral Interpretation Resource Identification Security Regolith Explorer) 2016-2023 designed to deliver soil samples from asteroid (101955) Bennu. The station was launched on September 8, 2016. The station reached the asteroid on December 31, 2018. Soil sampling is scheduled for August 25, 2020 [5], and return to Earth - September 2023
    - Mars 2020 Rover Mission - the mission of the Mars rover, developed by NASA, the launch was carried out on July 30, 2020, arrival on Mars - in February 2021
    - James Webb Telescope 2021 (in preparation)
    The guys from NASA are stubbornly pursuing their goal - to land humans on Mars in 2030.

    "and what is their main problem" - in everything! It is easier to ask where Roscosmos has no problem. Moreover, the problems of Roscosmos do not begin in Roscosmos.

    There is no need to write nonsense that there is not enough funding. Good money goes there, it just ends up in the pockets of effective menageries. it is the scourge of Russia, fools and roads.

    While the loot triumphs in the country, Russia will not have any space. As, however, and everything else that the country and the people need, like air.
    Only a change in the social system will change the situation for the development vector.
